Default Difference In Intakes

what if any is the difference between the plastic whale ***** intake and the carbon fiber intake?
is the cost of the carbon fiber really worth the extra gains? or does it even matter

Haven't tried both of them. Most people on here use AEM 3 inch ITR intakes. I myself have a CF PWJDM intake just to ride around with but when we were doing pulls the other night, on the datalog my CF never got above 81 degrees on a 75 degree night so it's not too bad.


Either way, if you are after power, it's going to make more going with a 3 inch CAI.
